BACK IN THE GROOVE AT ANFIELD

• Liverpool's stylish 4-0 win against Crystal Palace means
  the Reds are Premier League champions 24 hours later
  after Manchester City lose their must-win game at Chelsea.
  Manager Jürgen Klopp's side are so dominant that the visitors
  fail to touch the ball in Alisson's penalty-area during the entire
  game – a new Premier League record.


• Trent Alexander-Arnold curls in an unstoppable free-kick to
  get the scoring underway before Jordan Henderson strikes a
  post. Mo Salah chests down Fabinho's pass and finishes to
  make it 2-0, and after the break the Brazilian midfielder scores
  with a stunning long-range strike. Sadio Mane's slide-rule
  finish, from Salah's pass, makes it a convincing 4-0 win.


• “Imagine how this stadium would have been full today and
  all the people could have experienced it live,” says Klopp.
  “I don't think the game could have been better because my
  boys played like everybody was in the stadium.”
